Unit 13 covers how to teach pronunciation and phonology. Phonology is the study of the physical properties of sounds, such stress, rhythm, and intonation. Techniques for teaching intonation include using nonsense words, gestures, humming\\singing, and drawing arrows on the board to indicate intonation in sentences. Techniques for teaching stress include using gestures, contrastive stress, choral work, and incorporating stress marks on the board. The International Phonemic Alphabet provides a universal method of phonetically transcribing how words should be pronounced. Techniques for teaching the pronunciation of individual sounds include peer dictation, over-emphasizing the movements of your own mouth, using mouth charts as visual aides, phonemes from the IPA, and practicing tongue twisters.
